    I love goals! I have so many. In regards to health & fitness, they are:

    Lose 50 lbs
    Go from 33%(?) body fat to 25% or less
    Run a fall marathon – Des Moines or NYC
    Exercise 5 days per week
    Plan meals & exercise for the week in advance – make healthier meals for the kids

    I'm not sure if I will get down to goal weight(even though it's possible) but I do want to continue the path I have been taking as of the past couple of months. I want to at least get to be the smallest I've ever been as an adult. I'm 42 pounds away from that point. That would also put me in the overweight category as opposed to obese. We shall see!

    In 2013 I lost a stone. I would like to lose another stone for 2014. I could probably aim a lot higher and say 52lbs for the 52 weeks. But there is no point in setting myself up for disappointment if I don't hit target.
    I will be perfectly happy at losing slowly and being healthy, losing inches and toning up rather than having flabby/saggy skin.

    Lose 75 lbs. of the 130 lbs. total to reach 190 lbs., healthy weight. I have lost 11-13 lbs. lost since Nov. 1. Based on weighing about 305-308 by New Year's 2013, I will be just 40 lbs. away at the end of 2014 of reaching my ultimate goal weight of 190 lbs. Then in 2015, I can work on the last third of the weight to shed.

    Exercise most weekdays and at least once on the weekend. I have a gym buddy, so this helps tremendously.

    Cut my alcohol intake dramatically. I am thinking of cutting it entirely for the month of January.

    Meet with my doctor to track how I am doing and look at changes to medicines when I progressively get healthier.

    If I do this, I will reward myself with an active vacation in summer 2015. Not sure what it will include, but I want to do something where I can look back and say, "Holy crap, I just DID that!" instead of my typical, "Holy crap, I just ATE that!"

    When I hit that ultimate goal, I will plan a vacation to NORWAY. I do a lot of genealogy and have traced roots there. There is a famous luxury hotel in Norway that bears my family name of Fleischer. I think that would be a great reward (in addition to the health, of course!) for the weight loss. An active vacation of hiking mountains and kayaking, bicycling, doing what I want because I can, because I will be strong enough and healthy enough to do it without being "the fat guy holding everyone up."

    2. Run a tough mudder, warrior dash or something along those lines that will make me feel bad *kitten*.
    3. Get to 135lbs.
    4. Smile at myself naked.

    I love number 4. :) I want to add that one to my list. :)

    I have NEVER made a New Years resolution, nor will I this year! It's just another day! I don't understand why people wait for it to do something!

    I agree it is just another day. I cant speak for others, but for me - I set myself goals all the time. I have had these for a while (the 10K, for example, I set as a goal in Oct after running my second 5K). My pull-up goal is fairly recent, maybe from 2 weeks ago. :happy: I am NEVER without goals and objectives, and don't care what they are called. I suspect there are many others like me.

    This.

    Awesome. I agree. Less than a week after my first marathon, I had picked out my second one. Currently training now. I write every projected run/workout on my calendar and circle when completed. I just wrote a list of goals for the next 10 days of winter break. :) Yay for goals!

    In 2014 I want to:
    Wear dresses by this spring/summer and feel good in them.
    Take pictures and be proud of what I see, be less harsh on myself
    Enjoy each and every day left with my son, who is a high school senior (before he graduates) and appreciate my daughters remaining high school days!
    Write more letters to my grandmother and send her pictures of her great-grandkids. That is all she ever wants, besides us coming to visit
    Make myself a BILL, pay myself every payday (save for a rainy day)

    My resolution is to make continual short term goals that are challenging but doable. My first goal is to eat healthy and stay on track with calories for two weeks straight, no cheating and no getting on the scale. I'm also going to find a 5k run and sign up :). After the two weeks, I'll make another goal. Here's to looking forward to a great year!
